# Drag Reduction System for F1 racing cars
2+
3+
The goal of this project was studying three different actuation mechanisms for the Drag Reduction System (DRS) of a F1 racing car
4+
5+
In particular, the analyzed mechanisms were
6+
- Pod pull mechanism
7+
- Pod push mechanism
8+
- Pods and rocker mechanism
9+
10+
The analysis has been conducted with the help of **Maple** and **Matlab**.
11+
12+
The different mechanisms have been studied from both kinematic and dynamic points of view. The best one (Pod pull) has been then kinematically and dynamically optimized.
13+
14+
The obtained Differential Algebraic Equations derived from dynamics have been then exported to Matlab for a further analysis with different integration methods
15+
- [lib](/lib/) and [toolbox](/toolbox/) folders contain some customized libraries for the Maple analysis
16+
- [maplesim](/maplesim/) folder contains the files for the hydraulic simulation
17+
- [matlab](/matlab/) folder contains all the Matlab files used to study the exported DAEs
18+
- [inventor](/inventor/) folder contains the CAD files used to estimate the flap dimensions
